Miranda Lambert gained fame on the television show “Nashville Star” on which she was a finalist in 2003. Her music career had been in the making since childhood, and at the age of 16 she was granted a recording session. However wanting to stay closer to her side of the “bluegrass," she declined the offer; it wasn’t “country” enough. Since then, Lambert learned to write her own music and to play guitar in order to maintain her country style.
